Consumer Description

MY VEHICLE WILL SUDDENLY ACCELERATE FOR NO REASON. THIS SUDDEN "UNINTENDED ACCELERATION OF POWER" COMES ON WITH NO NOTICE. I HAVE ALMOST HIT A PERSON AND HAVE BEEN IN ONE CAR ACCIDENT AS A RESULT. THIS UNINTENDED ACCELERATION PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED ABOUT 10 TO 12 TIMES. THE UNINTENDED ACCELERATION HAS OCCURRED BOTH IN STATIONARY & IN MOTION; AND BOTH ON A CITY STREET AND HIGHWAY. TURNING HAS NOT BEEN AFFECTED BY UNINTENDED ACCELERATION. TOYOTA HAS TESTED AND PROVIDED THE ATTACHED REPORT TO ME BUT WITHOUT ANY INTERPRETATION. MY VEHICLE REPAIR COST BECAUSE OF THE UNINTENDED ACCELERATION WAS $4,529.24. TOYOTA STILL HAS NOT RESPONDED TO THIS DANGEROUS AND LIFE THREATENING SITUATION. THE MANUFACTURER COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. UPDATED 10/04/2017*JS
